That Wolf Roaming The Olympic Hallways In Sochi Is Yet Another Cruel Prank By Jimmy Kimmel

The video above supposedly shows American luger Kate Hansen opening her hotel room door in Sochi to find a wolf casually walking down the hallway. That’s what the entire internet, including us, was lead to believe by Hansen on Twitter.

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel orchestrated a hoax with U.S. Olympic luger Kate Hansen, Inside Edition reports. The syndicated magazine got confirmation of the video foolery from Sandy Caligiore, a publicist for the United States Luge Association.

You can catch Hansen at 11:35 tonight on WFTV-Channel 9. Hansen plans to Skype with the late-night shost, Caligiore said.

I dunno, these seem kind of like stupid pranks. EVERYTHING goes on the Internet these days. Kimmel is essentially saying “hey, this kind of weird thing happened at some point on the planet jk lol.” It just doesn’t seem much like a prank. Seems more like saying “hey, your shoe is untied.”
